NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - "A manual for people who are tired of wringing their hands and are ready to roll up their sleeves."--HILLARY RODHAM CLINTON Skye Perryman--TIME 100 honoree and CEO of Democracy Forward--offers an urgent, inspiring blueprint for how ordinary people can fight for freedom in extraordinary times. "A clarion call for everyone ready to meet this national and global crisis--and win."--STACEY ABRAMS
The future of our country lies in all of our hands. From protecting voting rights and public schools to finding courage in the face of fear, Skye Perryman makes the case that defending democracy isn't the job of lawyers or politicians alone--it's a role for every one of us, seasoned and brand-new activists alike. Drawing on her frontline experience challenging threats to democracy in courtrooms across the nation, Perryman combines gripping personal stories with practical "how-to" guides that empower readers to take action in their own communities. Accessible, hopeful, and deeply practical, this inspiring book shows that the path forward begins not in the halls of power but at our kitchen tables, in our neighborhoods, and through the everyday choices we make to speak up, build community, and protect our future.
